JERUSALEM (WNS) - The two-day march through the West Bank by some 20,000 supporters of the mili¬ tant nationalist Gush Emunim touched off a new wave of Arab unrest in West Bank towns and East Je.ru-' salem. -The Gush Emunim march itself was peaceful, starting in the Samarian hills and ending in Jericho. The route of march, which deliberately avoided major Arab population centers, was'protected by cordons of Israeli troops and was free of incidents. After arriving in Jericho the Gush Emunim marchers dispersed peace¬ fully. Meanwhile, thousands of Arabs marched from Ramallah to the Jerusalem suburb of Kaldania in a silent protest against the Gush Emunim march. In Nablus there were disturb¬ ances for three days after
the march began and Israel troops used tear-gas and later rifle fire to disperse youths pelting them with stones. A 55-year-old Arab',

NJEW YORK (JTA) - An American rabbinical expert oh Catholic-Jewish relations- has renewed a long dormant effort to obtain removal from the Catholic Good Fri¬ day liturgy of a hymn which, has strong anti-Jewish ele¬ ments. Called the "im- properia," or "Re¬ proaches," the ancient hymn is sung during the "Venera¬ tion-of the Cross." While the term "Jews" does not ap¬
peal' in the hymn, the refer¬ ence is unmistakable. The opening verse, as given in English translation in a 1961 study made under American Jewish Committee auspices, "Anti-Jewish- Elements in Catholic liturgy," reads: "O My People, what have I done' unto thee? Or in what have I offended thee? Answer Me. Because I led thee out of the land of Egypt, thou has pre¬ pared a cross for thy Savior." The second verse -reads, according to the 1961

AJC Rejects Charge That Its Support Of Legal Abortion Embraces Nazi Ideology
NEW YORK (JTA) - The American Jewish Congress strongly rejected Apr. 21 a charge that its support of legalized abortion meant it had adopted "the posture of legal positivism, the very ideology that enabled Hitler to pursue hi^ genocidal pol¬ icies." Naomi Levine, execu¬ tive director of the AJCon¬ gress, said that "any com¬ parison between the right of a woman to have an abortion" and the Nazi slaughter of the Jews is an obscene and out¬ rageous slur on the memory of the six million murdered in the Holocaust." The
charge against the AJCon¬ gress was made by Dr. Lowell A. Dunlap,' assistant executive director -of the Catholic League for Reli¬ gious and Civil Rights ;n a study called "Nee-Nazism in America?", He specifically took issue with arguments presented; by Leo Pfeffer, counsel to the AJCongress, in a brief filed by-the AJCon¬ gress. and seven other groups before the Massachusetts Supreme Court seeking re¬ versal of the manslaughter conviction of Dr. Kenneth Edeiin, who was charged with causing the death of a
